    Awesome Monday so far. Backing trailer into customer’s driveway to start a new job, boom snapped driveshaft. ‍♂️

    That's going to put a dent in your wallet!

    Shitty way to start a Monday.
    1 of those laugh to keep from crying. $750 for the driveshaft, luckily my mechanic had a spare so I already dropped it and installed the new 1. Not sure what amazed me more. The aluminum driveshaft or the 4 bolts that contains all that torque. Things just aren’t made like they used to be.

    I'm assuming it dropped as you were backing up. If so it probably wasn't spinning fast enough to do an damage to other things. I have seen that happen and it can get real expensive real fast.

    At least you got it fixed. Still a shitty way to start the week. Hopefully the rest of the week will be better!

    Exactly, I said the same thing. Luckily I was barely moving so no extra damage. Thanks, I hope so as well.
